Precipitation trends determine future occurrences of compound hot-dry events
Compound hot–dry events—co-occurring hot and dry extremes—frequently cause damages to human and natural systems, often exceeding separate impacts from heatwaves and droughts....- publication PDF

Typhoon forecasts with dynamic vortex initialization using an unstructured...
A dynamical vortex initialization (DVI) scheme is implemented on unstructured meshes for the global model MPAS for typhoon forecasts. The DVI extracts the departure vortex...- publication PDF
